Under the Public Records Act, I am asking for all documents regarding hiring an investigator to look into city issues
during the past three months.
Has the city hired an investigator to determine who is talking to the media? If so, under whose direction were they
hired?

I would like all documentation, including emails, regarding all requests for the city use of outside investigators for all
investigations during the period listed in the request.

Karen Velie,
In your original note to the City Attorney, pasted below, you request documents “regarding hiring an
investigator to look into city issues.” “Issues” is too broad of a term for a records search. Please provide
specific terms that you would like us to use to search for the records your require.

Dear Ms. Velie,
The Attorney’s office forwarded us your request for records, email subject – Media question.
My interpretation of your records needs are that you are looking for a contract or service agreement
connected to the hiring of an investigator related to communications with media. Is that correct?
